Yes, this would only apply to desktop and folder view containments. I haven't tried it with newspaper, but I assume the columns would automatically resize and the vertical dimension is not a problem since the containment scrolls vertically. In your mind, what would be "a good way"? If there are applets spread across the screen, you can't relayout them without resizing or having them on top of each other in the desktop or folderview containment. If any of your applets are larger than one of the new screen dimensions, if you don't resize them part of these applets will be off-screen (potentially a critical part like controls or buttons). I don't see another solution that would result in all of your applets being usable. -Todd _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
